any other cars will you accept?

There may still be a couple of other Zeds going - I'm working on it at the mo. In the event we can't get more Zeds we'll have to get a couple of other cars.

I'm sure we'll get a few more closer to the date.

Lads I'd like to include myself for the Show and Shine and I'll have the car back by then. Have a dent or two thats needs work too. Do the cars need to be in tip top shape for this catergory? I presume so... To save any smart answers, I guess it says it all in the 'Show and Shine' title...

Good on ya Chris, thats the spirit! Cars don't have to be in pristine condition, if its clean then thats sufficient (some FTOs in the show and shine over the years have been far from pristine - you know who you are!). Realisticly, we're not going out there to win concourse prizes, its about having the craic and advertising the club in the process.

Count me in so! And not in the Punto!

Whats the story with the entry forms and stuff this year? Presume you're sending them to us Colm are you?

Entry forms are available Here!
along with full details on this years show, and a quick peek at last years show.

Another question colm. Are we sending away the forms ourselves with payment included? Or are we sending payment via paypal or something to you and paying in total as FTO-Ireland? How do we pay them too if we're doing it ourselves? Cash I presume?

A cheque or bank draft will do the job*. No details of electronic transfer methods yet. you all know the risk involved with sending cash in the post.
I'd ask all of you to complete the form and send it with payment to SleekFX as soon as you can, lets get this much out of the way!

Contact me once you've sent your form off.

*Will confirm this with Sleek on Monday

are all the cars in the 1/4 mile manual? i have a tip gx,and would love to do the drag! would this slow the team down by much?

well if there's no other takers, put me down 4 the drag. but like seb, if any bigger engines wanna place i'll drop out!

ill do the drag

I reckon our FTOZ team has a good shot at the site battle title considering the average team times over the past couple of years was circa 14.5 secs.

god now i hope i still have mine by sept. will defo be there if my baby isnt gone. i loved to give her one last run

Guys I can probably be there

Getting the tappets done next week and wouldnt mind meeting yas.

Its only a GR so I dont think I can take Daves place in the 1/4 though.

Good stuff - We're gonna need that charger to keep the team time down.
Bet you were worried though - its not like you could have given your Zed into a Nissan Dealer to sort. I had to run that diagnostic last week as well after I ran over a piece of metal in the road - it turned out that my O2 sensor had got a bang (wasn't actually visually apparent) and needed to be replaced.

Yeah big time worried, I have one or two mechanics that I use but it wouldn't have been pretty if something was majorly wrong with the charger, some relief last night opening her up!! So I'll be ready for the strip and should hopefully see some 13's
